Cities population 200,000 and below

This is just a question to any of the forumers and what their opinion about any city that has a population of 200,000 and below. Okay meaning is it boring, lame, lifeless or just not a bustling( slowpaced). Or maybe these cities have a flavor about its self and not what some people perceive these cities? It's not about City vs City just about peoples opinions on different towns or cites.>
